My first week at TLC

I have had my first week into my course and am so happy I am doing it!

They got me to paint ANGER, LAUGHTER, BOREDOM and LOVE...

Paint your life how you see it now and paint how you would like it to be...

Take a personality test to see what traits you have.

The we had to do a collage I chose to do mine on an old guitar I bought when I was 12.

Maddy did her ukulele while I did mine...

It was so much fun making a mess in the studio!

After it was finished you had to read what the picture said about you. I got Shaughan to help me and we got to talk about how everything was going to work and I feel whole again. So the next step was taking a small step towards your goal. This is my next step making my cake and eating it too! I woke up at 4:30am to feed Jacko and my mind started buzzing I wanted to bake a cake for my next step so 5am I was in the kitchen baking with no one to distract me...BLISS!

READY TO EAT

BEST TASTING CAKE EVER!

Jacko thought it tasted good too!

My song for today is...

I Wanted to Be an Artist, So I Quit My Job and Became One

I had to share this article with you today, if I wrote something like this it would sound just the same... I Wanted to Be an Artist, So I Quit My Job and Became One by Christopher Fife. "Hi, I'm Christopher. I'm an artist." Exhale, run my fingers through my hair. "What do I do? Oh, I paint. I'm a painter. Yeah, I'm an artist." I tried it out every now and then, in front of the bathroom mirror. It sounded all right. But when I introduced myself as an artist outside my bathroom world of make-believe, I always felt false. I was like Magritte labeling a pipe. If I said I was an artist, I was an artist, right? Not exactly. Since I dedicated forty-plus hours a week to my corporate graphic design job, I was lucky if I painted a couple of hours a week. I came to despise myself for this self-deceit, for my inability to embrace what I really wanted to be. I wanted to be an artist. So I committed myself to becoming one. I started out like most people ...
